Heritage Beef Tail (rings)

Carefully cross-cut into convenient rings, this oxtail comes from our slow-matured heritage breed cattle, raised on a 100% grass-fed diet within the peaceful, chemical-free landscapes they call home.

Because Dexters are a smaller, traditional breed, their oxtail is famously concentrated in flavour. Each ring features a high proportion of nutrient-rich bone and marrow surrounded by deep, dark, slow-grown muscle. This unique anatomy is what gives the Dexter oxtail its legendary status among chefs and home cooks alike.

Why It’s a Kitchen Essential:

• Marrow-Rich Flavour: As it simmers, the marrow at the centre of each ring dissolves, infusing your stocks and stews with a velvety, umami-rich depth.

• Collagen Powerhouse: Naturally packed with connective tissue that transforms into a silky, gelatinous texture, creating a sauce that is naturally thick and incredibly nourishing.

• Pure & Natural: Reared without chemicals and allowed to mature at a natural pace, ensuring the cleanest possible taste and the highest nutritional integrity.

Chef’s Tip: For a truly transformative meal, brown the rings deeply in a pan before braising them with red wine, bay leaves and root vegetables. Aim for a 4–5 hour slow-cook until the meat literally falls away from the bone at the touch of a fork.
